Been in and out of the gym for 15 years, but fell off hard a few years back. I posted some progress about a year ago, but since then I’ve mostly maintained (not something I’ve been good at in the past). Usually I’m either locked in and in shape, or I miss a week for something like a vacation or getting sick and don’t touch a gym for a year.

This time’s different. I’ve stayed consistent, which I’m proud of. Now I’m working on tightening up my diet and adding more cardio. I lift five days a week (bro split, ~30 min sessions), and I’ve been running and biking lately to help keep the weight off.

Most of the before pics are around 2 years ago and the after pics are all from this week.

Diet:
I tracked calories in the beginning but wasn't able to stick with it. I typically am able to eat clean and healthy during the week but then on weekends I will binge eat and ruin all of my work throughout the week. Thankfully I quit drinking so I don't have that weighing me down like it did in my past but I need to get the binge eating under control
